should look for free kidney screenings in your community," according to Dr. Bradley. The local chapter of the National Kidney Foundation provides screening in many communities.

Managing diabetes helps protect kidneys. Diabetes management includes monitoring blood glucose according to the recommended schedule and monitoring blood pressure. "It is very important to get your kidneys checked at least once a year," Dr. Bradley explains. "This message of early detection and management of CKD is important in improving clinical outcomes and avoiding additional costly expenditures."

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is funding and coordinating a pilot CKD quality improvement effort in New York and nine other states as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Over 150 physicians are working in New York to implement system changes to greatly improve the quality of CKD management. These physicians are enhancing quality of life for their patients, reducing death rates, and saving health care dollars by preserving kidney health.
